De Ruyffelaer Ieper

A wonderful Belgian Dutch restaurant serving local food. We had Cockrell in Berry beer sauce and rabbit in beer and prune sauce the most wonderful mashed potatoes, beef tongue and two lovely bottles of wine. The bill was €200. The restaurant was really quiet so it lacked a bit atmosphere but it was a fantastic place. I hope we just caught it on a quiet night. I would highly recommend it.

This was the best dining experience of our entire 10 day trip to Belgium, Paris and Amsterdam. The atmosphere and decor was cozy, warm and inviting. The service was excellent, we never waited for anything, nor did we feel rushed. And the food was amazing! Everything we ordered was prepared to perfection and was full of flavor. Everyone in our party was in agreement that this was the best meal of our entire trip. This will surely be a highlighted memory from our vacation. Thank you for providing an amazing dining experience!

A lovely homely Belgian restaurant with warm service, a charmingly rustic interior and comforting tasty food. Their home brew beer is absolutely amazing (the triple blonde was our favourite) and they sell it too if you want to take some home. We had one of their set menus - of pork pate, rabbit with bacon and prunes and crème brûlée. At 43 EUR this was a decent deal and all the food was delicious. Partner had the venison special. The chef is particularly good at sauces - both mains had a cracking sauce. Recommended when visiting Ypres.

I spotted this restaurant as i wandered away from the tourist area seeking a laundromat. With an interesting menu posted outside, my decision was made to head back there later in the evening for a meal. As it happened, my choice was an excellent one. The food was delicious and the service impeccable. The restaurant had lovely decor and there was a strong sense of it being a family run venue with lots of passion for making sure that all guests enjoyed their meal.

Made a reservation three months in advance of Armistice Day. Needed a gluten free option and confirmed that online. Also needed to confirm a good time for the reservation following the War Remembered Concert that evening. All done from the US. The restaurant was extremely helpful and cooperative. It was easy to find and very cozy. The food was outstanding and the wine exceptional. Our party of four enjoyed everything. The taste was fantastic and the chefs are highly talented. I was looking for a real Belgian meal and experience and we found just that at this restaurant.

A lovely small family restaurant. Simple but beautiful family style food served and presented with skill. Very well priced and a lovely night out.

We ate there with friends yesterday evening. I had the Venison stew which was stunning. Great service and food by the hosts who clearly take pride in their food and hospitality.

Beautiful, well cooked food, served with care and attention to detail. We both had a mouthwatering stew, containing a good range of vegetables and plenty of venison. I asked for less cream on my pudding, which was accompanied by the lady of the house when served. She wanted to make sure I was happy with the amount of cream. Someday, all restaurants will be this careful and kind. We will return.
